97% Owned Documentary The Positive Money Directors Cut
When money drives almost all activity on the planet, it’s essential that we understand it. Yet simple questions often get overlooked – questions like:
- where does money come from?
- Who creates it?
- Who decides how it gets used?
- And what does that mean for the millions of ordinary people who suffer when money and finance breaks down?
97% Owned is a new documentary that reveals how money is at the root of our current social and economic crisis. Featuring frank interviews and commentary from economists, campaigners and former bankers, it exposes the privatised, debt-based monetary system that gives banks the power to create money, shape the economy, cause crises and push house prices out of reach.
Fact-based and clearly explained, in just 60 minutes it shows how the power to create money is the piece of the puzzle that economists were missing when they failed to predict the crisis.
Produced by Queuepolitely and featuring Ben Dyson of Positive Money, Josh Ryan-Collins of The New Economics Foundation, Ann Pettifor, the “HBOS Whistleblower” Paul Moore, Simon Dixon of Bank to the Future and Sargon Nissan and Nick Dearden from the Jubliee Debt Campaign, this is the first documentary to tackle this issue from a UK-perspective, and can be watched online now.

Hello Sir,
I just finished watching the documentary I found on YouTube.com called “97% Owned – Monetary Reform documentary”. It has influenced me to ask you a quick question.
The question assumes you have already heard of “The Venus Project” and “The Zeitgeist Movement”. I have only researched “The Venus Project”. I do not know anything about “The Zeitgeist Movement” other than when I talked to some acquaintances of mine, they commented on the similarities between the two. Now the quick but two part question:Is the solution to our current financial crisis to fix it by passing laws to transfer control of creating money to a body other than the government or banks, or can we seriously take the offered solution of “The Venus Project” which is to do away with money altogether? I feel that you will answer this question if you have time. I hope that you will have the time.
I thank you for the time it will take you to respond,
Cane Kostovski
